All BB, Android phones have CarrierIQ rootkit keyloggers
-
Apparently CarrierIQ has rootkit keyloggers on all Android and BB phones that report all key presses etc. back to your carrier "to help diagnose service issues". Even captures SSL searches, for example (evidence that it is keylogging I suppose).

This is carrier dependent. I promise you I don't have it installed. :)
And if you load a BB build directly from us, I also doubt it's there. -
Yeah, the carrier bundles that get put on by default are filled with crap.
Such is the misery of buying a phone for $0. -
This is exactly why consumers deserve direct control over the devices they own. Makes me mad

Le custom firmware ftw.

Good for RIM. I am sad to say Apple did have this crap as part of its load, but no longer does, apparently.
The networks all claim it is absolutely necessary in order to properly operate a network... i find that a bit incredulous.
